My buddy baja was late 70s with no interior to speak of ,except couple small seats , it was prob 700ishthats prob y performed so gud wit 115 v4

Baja 184 Sun Sport 1050 hull plus engine.

As others have stated, I would suggest you ditch the hull for a better performance design… I had that exact same motor on my 1990 STV Pro comp ski and it ran upper 90s… Was almost completely stock except for 150 psi compression, 32 cc heads...
I think you would be amazed how much better that motor would run on an Allison, Hydrostream, STV or similar lightweight design…
I’ve been in your shoes with an old speed liner tunnel that looked cool but would not perform… Kerry

How many HP,s are milled heads good for? 20??

[bullet123]

Didn't you already have your heads shaved?

[seansbaja1982]

Yes, was wondering how many HP that was good for?

[bullet123]

I doubt 20. Probably closer to 15

[David Borg]

Wh 20 and wh 15 have a bigger bore than the rest and are best for top end they consume a lot of fuel as well.Wh 22 have better idle holeshot accelleration and better on fuel too. Wh 46 are like a better version of the 22s

[seansbaja1982]

Ok good to know. I have to be around 225HP then with the other mods I did?

[seansbaja1982]

I may ditch the 2.4L 200, I have a eye on a 1998 PM 225 drop on power head... Wonder how that would be on it?

[David Borg]

PM is Better on fuel and has more torque

[seansbaja1982]

At least I would have fuel injection, newer engine and possibly 3-5 mph more? Its stock with a brucato acu.

[tunnelmike]

Great choice. I would think over 5mph increase with the right prop.
